im finally recharged! im damn sorry i didn't go for the ecp outing lar. stayed at home to accompany my sis! and yar to slack as well. yea decided to try out this new layout aft she went for tuition:)

anw.. i got this from the net..
the liar's paradox.
it's the simple sentence "This sentence is a lie".

If the sentence is true, then it is a lie, as it says.
But if it is a lie, how can it be true?
A lie cannot also be the truth.
So the sentence being true makes it a lie.

If the sentence is a lie, then it is not as it says, it is true.
But that is just what the sentence says.
So that makes it true.
So the sentence being a lie makes it true.

confused? yep of course its a paradox btw it means smth like a logical sentence that's neither true nor false? quite interesting!
